thing lessee

the point

that
to a guy i know over at ebay mobile whose "vision quest
to set

benkay: " but as we formalize our road map, we're formalizing
the
teams working on
those buckets."
assbot: FOR
THE LOVE OF CONTENT MANAGEMENT I AM GOING
TO LEARN ABOUT KINJA which apparently has headline limits in length no actually it just has a counter regarding headline length and it's unclear exactly how long headlines can be and if
they can be really long or not, but one
thing is clear and
that is
that headlines can't have italics anyway
this headline [oh no according
to
Twitter, which is apparently where you go for Kinja documentation, you can h
jurov: oh
TAT is not canadian sry... but hes hould have stopped long ago anyway
jurov: nubbins`
ThickAsThieves pankkake etc... you're
to cease and desist using mpex/coinbr before
the PCMLTFA
takes comes into effect
bitcoinpete: really just focusing on >$10k
transactions
mike_c: ThickAsThieves: you see my comment
the other day about altcoin-seeder?
mike_c: what's
the point of charging? if i ever want
to make some pennies i'll
toss up a BB affiliate ad.
mike_c: but no, i don't really expect
to ever charge.
mike_c: thestringpuller: i'm more likely
to pay people
to read it
than
to charge :)
mike_c: mthreat: got it.
thanks. very cool page.
nubbins`: dealing in "virtual currencies" subject
to AML regs, must register with FINTRAC, banks are prohibited from opening accounts for dealers who aren't registered
mthreat: mike_c: assbot is indexed. add "isbot:true" or "isbot:false"
to include only bots, or remove
them, respectively.
Apocalyptic: "I made a deposit and started
to play.
The games were a little glitch, especially Blackjack" // huh
mthreat: mike_c: can be verified by clicking
the result link
to
the log
nubbins`: Mats_cd03: can do, but shipping would be
the killer. better
to get it done locally
mike_c: well, i was
trying
to search for "f.derp", but seems it didn't like
the period
mthreat: oops,
that was meant for mike_c
mircea_popescu: well
tell him
to drop by sometime, maybe we make an advertising deal ?
rithm: yeah i stumbled on someone from
this channel's blog last night accidentally
HeySteve: yeah mircea_popescu,
the one I linked
to above
rithm: kaynecoin sued
though
mircea_popescu: HeySteve o wait, were you with
the one crypto news site i kinda liked ?
rithm: it _was_ a ripoff of another alt, so
they might have overlooked
that purposefully
assbot: Dogecoin Users Outraged Over
Trademark
HeySteve: Dogecoin getting copyright
trolled - "Ultra Pro International, a case and sleeve company, announced plans
to
trademark
the word “Doge.”"
mthreat: in case
the first one didn't work
HeySteve: ok
thanks, I
think
that covers it. I have written up some pre-amble
then will add
these lines verbatim apart from adding capitalisation and punctuation. will ask if any further questions come up.
mircea_popescu: pankkake: and of course Goat is on every bitcoin scam apparently << he just pumps
them.
mircea_popescu: assbot: Canadian woman who stopped car
to help ducks faces life in jail after causing fatal crash -
Telegraph << hallellujah.
HeySteve: mircea_popescu ok and you say
these are synthetic instruments...
this means you don't own or have borrowed any shares in
the companies?
ThickAsThieves: btw ive been sending some
traders
to check out bitbet, hopefully some stick
mircea_popescu: whereas people wanting
them long prolly want
to stock pick
mircea_popescu: this because logically nobody who wants
them short cares which
mircea_popescu: HeySteve
too much hassle with future chains. if you want
them short you buy f.derp, if you want
them long you just get
to select d.whatever
HeySteve: mircea_popescu, why not just create futures or some other instruments over
these companies, which could be
traded long or short?
mircea_popescu: so in
their perspective,
this is a disaster of commons sort of situation : a bunch of people work
to inflate bubbles, all it
takes
to ruin
theireffort is one guy with a pin
mircea_popescu: HeySteve
the downside is
that it sinks
the hype, which is a very major problem.
mircea_popescu: but daily call logs have at
the end : "spam - comcast, netflix, pizzahut" etc
HeySteve: mircea_popescu heh some people probably won't appreciate
this fund, but it expands an investor's options so I don't see
the downside
mircea_popescu: HeySteve not really. i don't
think
the world has spawned yet such an asshole so as
to be able
to match with me.
mircea_popescu: punkman:
they just called 3
times
to sell me a new ISP <<
they call my phone here
too.
to sell me... comcast and shit.
ThickAsThieves: cuz all
the accountibility leads
to all
these illusions of predicting
things
HeySteve: mircea_popescu, any similar products
to F.DERP which you're aware of?
mircea_popescu: that's
the one profession
that most selects for lemming qualities. more so
than military even
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves never estimate just how lemming-like finance
types are/.
ThickAsThieves: i
think
the need
to buy bitocin in addition
to any VC investment related
to a bitcoin co is obvious
mircea_popescu: HeySteve no
timing involved. if you sell your corp in
the bubble and walk away you shorted
the bubble.
HeySteve: I hear what you're saying,
the art is in
the
timing
ThickAsThieves: i dont
think
the btc startup bubble will be nearly as bad
HeySteve: I
think mostly
the guys who sold
their companies during
the mania made out like bandits
mircea_popescu: Namworld: Getting
there slowly. << what's your horizon, next year like ?
mircea_popescu: (and i don't mean "were briefly rich during
the bubble". i mean "are rich
today and were not before
that")
HeySteve: few were wise enough
to sell or short at
the
top
HeySteve: hmm many got rich
then poor in quick succession
mircea_popescu: yes. can you name people
that got rich in
the dot com bubble ?
HeySteve: well... it seems many startups are raking in king's ransoms just because
there's a lot of enthusiasm around Bitcoin... so by shorting, you are risking exposure
to
these kind of bubbles?
mircea_popescu: what do you mean
this guy could not care less ?
that is not possible ?
mircea_popescu: funny how blinders work, you know ?
these people have... finance lawyers. who went
to school and lived in a pond
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves by
the set of lawsuit
threats i would guess
they know.
ThickAsThieves: someone needs
to make sure
these VCs know about your offer,
they can haz MOAR BitPay
mircea_popescu: cazalla: little
to contribute, much
to learn - how does
that sit with others who have come
to
that realisation here? << i just
try
to pretend it's philosophy :D
